How AI was used in this PR
Used to trace why conversation text was unselectable and to pinpoint the inherited
select-noneon the app shell as the root cause. The diagnosis and the one-line fix were reviewed manually.Proposed Changes
Studio Code users couldn't select or copy any text from a conversation — user prompts, assistant replies, tool output, or agent questions. The app shell intentionally marks the whole window non-selectable for a native feel (
select-noneon the root), and thatuser-select: nonewas cascading into the conversation.This re-enables text selection just for the Studio Code conversation, so users can highlight and copy anything the agent says (or that they said) — e.g. to reuse a command, save a snippet, or share a reply. The rest of the app chrome stays non-selectable, as before.
Testing Instructions
select-text.mp4
As a follow-up we could add copy button to copy the message in markdown text.
